Doug, I will disagree with your statement. This format would reward skill versus luck, only if you rewarded 1st place with the direct seat into the main WSOP tourney.

However even though Jake or someone else might run away with the daily tourney's with 6000 pts difference, in the end he will sit in a tourney with 50 players, with the same chance to win, even with #50.

And what happens if no.49 with less than 1000pts. total wins the final, (which probably be a super turbo all-in shove and pray festival). It definitely will not have skill rewarded.
spider is right

you cant do this just for first place over 3 months but i would prefer seeing something like top 50

5 satellites 1-10 11-20 21-30 31-40 41-50 then reward 10 spots for the final then the winner of the final gets the seat, this will be 5 bbs each for a shot at the world series of poker
